Halfway There!

Well friends, we are halfway there (in the pregnancy, that is!). I feel like I've been pregnant for a really long time and it's went really fast all at the same time. I know that time flies by, I think I have just forgotten what it's like to not have a kid kicking you most of the day from the inside! :)

Halfway there!

I keep thinking that once this (insert event, day, moment here) is past, life will stop being so busy. But no, it's really not. Between school stuff, church stuff, fun stuff and baby stuff we are just all over the place!

I have been on Spring Break this week (whoo hoo!) and have spent the week packing up the house for our big move next weekend. We have hit a snag in the loan process (not our fault) so our closing may be getting pushed back a couple of days. However, we should still be able to move next weekend. I look forward to hanging things on the walls, organizing, painting and having a place to call our very own again!

As far as the pregnancy goes, I think we're doing good. Most days I wake up and spend the day with an incredibly tight stomach. I suppose that's the stretching that's going on (ick). Baby Boy Henry is a very active little guy. My books say that around 20-22 weeks is when you should begin to feel "flutters" of the baby moving around. I have been feeling distinct kicks for about three weeks now. If you place your hands on my belly at just the right moment, you can feel those kicks too. And if you just stare at my stomach, it moves when he kicks. I think he must be a giant! Oh, what will this feel like in another 20 weeks?! But it is also very reassuring to feel him moving around in there as often as I do!

While we are both crazy busy, it seems there is really nothing to report. It's just the busyness of life, I suppose. Mostly work and some play! I will post lots of pics in the next few weeks of our new home!

Get Behind Me!

Good morning reader friends! I felt as though I hadn't written anything of substance for a while so here goes! I have been attending a Bible study with women who are on campus or have previously been on campus. This past week, someone told me they hadn't seen anyone get through seminary without a car breaking down (in a disastrous way), someone close to them dying, or serious financial woes. My first thought was, "Get me out of here!" But in all honesty, why do seminary families have so many troubles? I can tell you why, Satan is an attacker. An evil being who does not want any human growing in their faith in his nemesis. I remember a few things happening before we even moved that made me think that Satan was attacking us. He was doing everything in his power to make us stay where we were and lose faith in our Lord. But he didn't win, we're here. He's still attacking us though. Luke's job hasn't started yet...every time he calls they tell him t

Clarity, Please?

Job hunting is never fun. Enough said. :) I just got home from my first job interview here in KC. And well, wasn't that interesting? I interviewed with a massage company...for (what I thought) a receptionist position. I got lost on the way there - but on a plus side I totally figured it out and got myself back on track (go me!). I had to drive literally through the city traffic to get there. I got off the interstate and proceed to, in my mind, the ghetto. It probably isn't though - I doubt I've ever been to a real ghetto. During the interview the lady tells me that we are in the ritzy part of town (uh, what?) and that customers will yell at me. Oh, and so will the therapists...I guess they think they run the place since they have a college degree. Um, I have a college degree. She also asked if I was familiar doing sales with a script. It appears that I have to call people and convince them to get a membership to this place. Okay....oh, and I make $8.50 an hour plus commis

KC Adventures

So I've decided that I'm not so good at blogging. I meant to do this at least a couple times a week...not once every two weeks. It's a very busy time in my life so I apologize! I'll try harder! I have decided to focus this blog post on more FUN things! It seems my past posts have been serious tear-jerkers and while I enjoy them...it's time for some fun! Luke and I (the dorks that we are) have created a short list of adventures we would like to embark on when we get to KC. My plan is to document all these adventures and share them with you. This list is just a few things we have found so far...I'm sure it will grow. And as I look over it...most of it seems centered around food and sports. Hrmmm...let's get started. Oh, by the way, these are in no particular order. 1. Kansas City Royals game. No, we are NOT going to disown the Cardinals! We will always be Cardinals fans. However, Royals games are CHEAP! They have BUCK nights and areas of the stadium that ar
